Legendary venues don’t come any better than Le Mans, with MotoGP™’s French Grand Prix taking over the Bugatti Circuit for a fantastic, fan-filled weekend every year. With home heroes Fabio Quartararo and Johann Zarco on the grid, bikes are the boss for the weekend when MotoGP™ rolls into town – with awesome crowds and a great atmosphere!About the circuit:
Built in 1965 around the existing 24-Hour track, the Le Mans Bugatti Grand Prix race circuit lies 5km south of the city of Le Mans and 200km south-west of Paris. The venue has hosted Grand Prix since the late sixties but a serious accident to Spanish rider Alberto Puig in 1995 saw it struck off the calendar until 2000 whilst stringent safety improvements were carried out.
Le Mans is a tight track dominated by first gear corners that place the emphasis on late braking and hard acceleration, whilst rear end traction is also a key area. With the capacity to comfortably accommodate up to 100,000 spectators, the Bugatti circuit also plays host to the 24 hour truck race, French Touring Cars and GT races.
